text: REMOTE | INDIEHACKER CEO<p>Ideate, build and grow companies in partnership with stealth investor group run by former public Unicorn CIO and big 3 Consulting MD.  We have hypotheses on several &quot;indie.vc&quot; type products, believe we can find more, and are willing to put capital (both $ and intellectual) behind getting them off the ground.<p>We are seeking an indie-hacker to validate ideas through rough and ready hacker product market fit testing (google ads, landing page conversion testing, simple wordpress sites, consumer insights) and then lead early customer development.<p>We will supply investment $$ to fund the costs of testing and validation, then make a go-no-go decision of further funding and&#x2F;or bootstrapping.  We will give significant equity to the indie-hacker.  While you can be anywhere, our ideas are primarily US based markets, so knowing the culture would be helpful.<p>We are not looking for fancy application builders - that can come later - but more folks who can string together existing tooling to create initial no&#x2F;low code apps for initial validation.  Additionally, you should have a hacker &#x2F; builder mindset where it comes to customer development.<p>If interested, please send an email to ceosearchemail@gmail.com

text: Senior Elixir Software Engineering Mentor | Remote (Global) | Part-Time ~3 Month Contract | $1000 USD monthly retainer.<p>Hello! I&#x27;m an Engineer with a decade of mobile engineering experience attempting to bootstrap my own startup. Over the last several months, I have picked Elixir and Phoenix as my stack of choice. However, it&#x27;s my first time ever building out a server-side application. Since it&#x27;s only me at the moment and I&#x27;m new to this side of the engineering world, I&#x27;m looking for a mentor of sorts who wouldn&#x27;t mind guiding me on architectural decisions, high level technical talks on how I should implement features, helping me out by reviewing my PRs, and acting as a general &quot;guiding hand&quot; so I can build out something robust, maintainable, and secure.<p>LINKEDIN: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.linkedin.com&#x2F;in&#x2F;immranderson&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.linkedin.com&#x2F;in&#x2F;immranderson&#x2F;</a>
